HE may have turned in a man-of-the-match performance and netted two goals but Alex Taylor could be in the wrong business.

Perhaps a career reading the stars would be more appropriate - the 23-year-old predicted his performance before the game on Saturday morning.

“I actually wrote it on a piece of paper this morning - two goals and man of the match,” he said.

The former Kidderminster Harriers man worked tirelessly throughout the 90 minutes, and put his improved form down to getting extra game time.

He said: “I’m just getting a few minutes on the pitch again. That’s three starts in a row which is my second highest. It is just about keeping a little run going now, and I would have thought I would be starting next Saturday.”

“He’s a superstar in the making,” chipped in boss Dean Thomas as Taylor was speaking to the Times. So what does the striker think of the gaffer?

“He gives me a lot of stick in training,” he said.

“We did shooting practice on Thursday and every time I missed there was a bit of banter. But he can’t say anything now can he!”
